Battery recycling is a key pillar of a resilient battery strategy — yet evolving cell chemistries and longer battery lifetimes continue to challenge the business case. At the same time, direct recycling is gaining momentum, particularly for production scrap and low-value chemistries such as LFP and sodium-ion batteries.

Join us for our next Battery Live Talk, where we will explore the economic realities of battery recycling and the growing role of direct recycling technologies. 
Together with our guest Claudia Stauch (Fraunhofer ISC), we will discuss current research, key cost drivers, and the impact of changing battery chemistries on future recycling strategies.

What will be discussed?

  • What are the cost drivers in battery recycling?
  • How can direct recycling be economically viable?
  • What is the influence of changing chemistries in this topic?

Be part of the discussion and gain insights into one of the most important enablers of a sustainable battery value chain.
